Creating new jobs

I suggest that the US Customs Department charge a $1,000-per-container inspection fee on every container entering the United States. This fee would be used to completely fund the cost of inspections. If we assumed that a four-man team could fully inspect two containers a day or about 500 per year, it would require 48,000 inspectors. Allowing for at least 2,000 support personnel, we would need at least 50,000 workers. Because these workers would require high intelligence and skill levels they should earn at least $30 per hour. At 40-hour weeks plus benefits, I estimate the cost per worker to be over $75,000 per year, all paid by the foreign manufacturers. Even so, this would still leave over $2.25 billion to cover all other costs. Any revenue not used would be used to compensate American workers displaced by foreign imports.

I urge and encourage everyone who agrees with this plan and or the terror tariff idea to communicate this to every politician you can think of

Provide economic development zones where the corporate income tax is zero for operations within these zones. In order to operate in this zone a company must agree to only purchase American components if available and employ only American citizens or legal immigrants in these operations. These economic development zones shall be eventually be expanded to include every bit of every state once the benefits are shown I would like them to be totally implemented immediately but I realize that may be overreaching. It must be stated for clarification that simply being in the geographic area of the zones does will not subject any company to any new mandatory regulation. Everything is voluntary for getting the exclusion from corporate taxation. The profit attributable to direct imports is subject to the same rules that exist everywhere else in this nation for corporate taxation. Only free from such taxation is the profit attributable to American content and any American improvement. In short no new mandatory regulation will be a part of this. It is my opinion that there will not be a lack of companies seeking this tax relief. And no the regulation implied is absolutely minimal in order to get this through.

An immediate end to guest worker programs. If people wish to come to the USA to work and make a life let them immigrate according to the rules

Use tariffs and other means to prevent the relocation of jobs offshore that are essential to the national defense. If necessary take control of the company seeking to export vital technology or industry by means of eminent domain (No I do not like this last option and I will only defend its use as an absolute last resort like say in the case of rare earth magnets essential to smart bomb technology). Provide a hardened, widely distributed infrastructure to supply all that is needed for our military units and civil defense that can be continued to be deployed in the event of any military attack.

Use tariffs on those nations which are engaged in unfair trade practices such as currency manipulation (China and India for example), those nations which refuse to open their markets to US products (China for example with its 50% tariffs on US consumer goods and non tariff barriers), those nations that subsidize competition to American Industry (airbus for example) and those nations which have slave conditions for their workers.

every container???? "container". What all does that cover Rob??? Mexican peppers??? chiquita bananas??? coffee bags from columbia???? Toyotas??? Nissans??? "french" fries??? Arent containers allready inspected before coming over here??? I mean, I guess Marijuana's not or maybe some over seas cocaine or heroin cause that stuffs illegal anyway. What exactly do you mean???? And what do you mean by "inspect"??? Are they to peel back the peeling on the terrorist bananas ??? Who gets to eat them in that case???? Are they to check each grain of coffee or just each bag??? Its not gonna be fresh like that you know. Is this all some scare by you to get us all to stop eating bananas and drinking coffee or eating peppers from mexico??? I like french fries too!!!!!! Explain rob....................

Get rid of government subsidies for offshore investment of US companies. OPIC is the first such program which should go but support of World Bank programs that subsidize the outflow of Capital would be another.

IF anybody could really compete with Toyota then maybe we'd start buying them. I cant go and buy a peice of junk just so someone over here can continue to have there job. I gotta look after me. Just like "german" shepherds............. you think if Americans had shepherd dogs worth a crap we'd keep having to get them from Germany????

Doberman pinchers................ English Bulldogs......... nokia phones............ what are we to do, just keep sacrificing quality so we can buy american????

Am I talkin to fast for ya there rob?????????? lol lol lol

Sheep-

I believe the term you are looking for is Xenophobia (zee-no-fo-bee-a) The unduly fear of or hostility towards strangers or foreigners.

thanks stretcher, thats it .

Jason

Are you still alittle upset about this



No I have no fears of foriegners in fact having spent time in other countrys I enjoyed for the most part my time spent with them.
But I dont like them enough to allow them conquer our country thru illegal immagration.
I dont like them enough to give them a job that one of my fellow Americans could be doing.

Rob, wow!!!!!!!!!!!! I didnt know Bush won that big!!!!!!!!!! I aint really upset over it. I didnt vote anyway. As for your little phobia there.................... you really should learn to widen your horizons a little. Discrimination is a bad thing. So is prejudice. I used to work in a carpet mill with lots of mexicans. They worked HARD. They CAME TO WORK. They kept there mouth SHUT. They were GRATEFULL....................... A FEW QUALITIES THE AMERICAN PEOPLE COULD LEARN TO PRACTICE SOMETIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!

instead of making $34 an hour and CRYING about it like ole T-bone. What if you ran a business. Here you are. You got a spoiled rotten, loud mouth, un gratefull, whiney american that refuseses to work, or you got a hard working, mouth shut, get it done mexican whose willing to work for less than half what ole smart mouth is.......... who you gonna hire????????????????

ALLRIGHT SMARTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU JUST WAIT TILL I FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT PICTURES AND STUFF ON THIS MESSAGE BOARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU'VE HAD IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Sheep...

Once again your ability to portray an 8 year old has reared its ugly head. Rob is trying to make some valid points here that might be worth hearing by the UNEMPLOYED of the world. These are the types of ideas that could lighten the load on the middle class working American that pays for so many government assistance programs already. The obnoxious win-lose game has really tainted the atmosphere of this post which was full of one mans idea or genius depending on how you look at his thoughts. Shame on you for your poor attitude towards someone who was willing to take a crack at a better America for goofballs like you. And after the constant Kerry remarks you didn't even go vote? How lame is that? You have no right to negatively comment on the state of the union after not taking your chance to change it for what you thought was better. CR Moss was right about you. What a goober.
